Part 3, "Programs and Activities," outlines suggestions for the actual "Summer Sportacular" programs, including guest speaker possibilities, games and activities, sample programs, booklists and audiovisual recommendations, craft ideas, and a sample skit. Part 4, "Giveaways and Games," contains theme-related clip art, puzzles, word games, mazes, coloring pages, and answer keys. Part 5, "Performing Artists," contains a directory of performers from around the state and a performer evaluation form.
